Well, then the wiki refueling 'how-to' is wrong. But if I add in the TACAN (ESSO1 and the TACAN-id) to that demo I can see it in prop browser. Just doing a demo_2 as Csaba says works, I can follow the TACAN if I turn it on when at 8000' (getting out of all the noise?), and sure enough locate the tanker. But then dropping off, and turning south, the needle then goes all off, and in fact ands up pointing to KSFO - I can then follow that all the way back to airport. Something is up here.
